The NASCAR Cup Series arrived at Iowa Speedway, producing a boatload of drama. Brad Keselowski won the first two stages; however, he was forced to climb through the top 5 spots during the final green-flag run. Instead of Keselowski's return to victory lane, a Hendrick Motorsports driver stretched his fuel to the end.
William Byron and the No. 24 team for Hendrick Motorsports won the Iowa Corn 350 at Iowa, earning their second victory of the 2025 Cup Series season. Byron held off Chase Briscoe, Keselowski, and Ryan Blaney after several cautions aided an improbable run to the finish with limited fuel.
The driver of the No. 24 car led 141 laps en route to his second victory of 2025 while taking the regular season points lead from Hendrick Motorsports teammate Chase Elliott. With three races remaining until the regular season is over, Byron hopes to add more playoff points and win before the playoffs start soon.
